I need to convert a number between 1 and 6000000 to a letter combination like ABCDE.
Less letters is better. but i’m guessing i will need 4 or 5.
Can someone point me in the right direction as how to write an algorithm to convert numbers to letters and back? only A-Z. (caps).
You need to convert to base-26 numbering: 0 is A, 1 is B, 25 is Z, 26 is BA, etc.
The Hexavigesimal Wikipedia article has code for conversion to base 26.
